I have been designing and making jewelry since 2007, inspired by my tenure with Bella Online where I was the writer/editor of Bella Online's Fashion Jewelry and Jewlery Collecting channels.During this time, I did extensive research into gemstones and jewelry design for my articles, and had the opportunity to interview many top jewelry designers; among them Elvis Presley's personal jeweler Lowell Hayes,and Gigi Garner, a celebrity jewelry designer and daughter of the late actor James Garner. Designing my own little jewelry collection seemed like a natural next step. So over the years I tried my hand at several different techniques, from stringing beads, working with wire and metal, polymer clay, birch bark, resin, and chain maille.
